The lie-smith had drawn lots with the lady of strife, and they'd each chosen a handful of targets. Loki had, of course, cheated. His hobby and his grandson were too amusing to leave to chance. His favored granddaughter might feel some of the sting of this game, but all that he did served the greater Loki, which was what mattered in the end.

These days would be most amusing.

	Halbjorn is still there, but frustrated, hands shaking, veins prominent. He didn't get to finish the fight. What trickery is this? "The beast hath fled. Thou wouldst be best to challenge me not." he warns the people who are suddenly far too close for comfort. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	The team leader signals for the others to hold. "What 'beast'? We got the call that you suddenly lost it and started attacking the film crew." Sirens are approaching, as the fire department is en route to deal with the small blazes about the set. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	Stupid mortals. You'd think they'd know when he'd 'lost it'. This was just a couple wrecked cars. No big deal, right? And didn't he just warn them to back off? This is not helping. "The film crew wast in no danger from me. There wast a wyvern, perched right there. Surely others saw it!" (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	Halbjorn's personal assistant for the film, a young brunette woman in glasses, whom had 'known' Halbjorn before the start of filming, approached timidly. "M-Mister Halbjorn... There was nothing there." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	He growls. "Mortal senses miss some things. Mayhap twas cloaked in magic. We hath tricksters mongst our enemies." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

"We'll have forensics look into it." The leader says evenly. "Look, son, we appreciate all you and your teammates do, so I'm willing to put aside bringing you in.--"

"Yeah, not like he's a mutie..." another SWAT officer mutters, before being silenced by a glare from the leader.

"BUT, I think its best for everyone if you just go home. Someone will come by and speak with you after you've cooled down." He waits for a response.

	Halbjorn forces down the anger, mostly. "Aye, mayhap." he agrees, letting his assistant lead him away before starting home. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"Maybe you're just stressed out?" She tries to help, as she leads him off the lot and bids him farewell at the gate. ~~~ On the way home, another commotion will be heard, as an ox of unearthly size, with razor-sharp teeth, will come barreling down the road at Halbjorn.

	Halbjorn draws his axe in response, and rushes headlong back at it, roaring a challenge. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	The beast lowers its head, meeting the axe with horns ready to gore. It takes a hit and is battered aside, smashing into a fruit cart. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	stone_bear 2011-08-19 10:02 pm UTC (link)
	Halbjorn leaps after it, swinging the axe in a downward arc as he goes, the fruit cart exploding under the impact. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	nextgen_citizen 2011-08-19 10:18 pm UTC (link)
	An odd smell issues forth as the beast bleeds. It swings its head and strikes true this time. Halbjorn will feel the pain, pushing him closer to his breaking point, but somehow, his blood does not spill. Sirens approach once again, as the beast thrashes. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	stone_bear 2011-08-19 10:28 pm UTC (link)
	Halbjorn tenses, expecting the rush of pain and smell of blood, and finds it missing. But it still dared attack him. Halborn lowers his shoulder and rushes, trying to drive it through the nearest wall. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

And a motor-oil and fruit juice spattered Halbjorn will smash through the wall into the shower room of a women's yoga studio. The ox is gone, and a few panicked patrons flee into the other parts of the studio, confusion and fear stirring the populace outside.

There is no mark on Halbjorn, and neither track nor scent of the beast. A fruit cart and a car are mangled, an unconscious driver behind the wheel of the latter.

	This is getting perplexing. The absence of the beast, for the second time, might push him over, save for the sudden change of venue. The presence of, well, the expected scenery in a women's shower room is enough to shock his mind into something less than seeing red, though the panic isn't helping. "Monster! Where art thou?! Come and face thy death!" (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	nextgen_citizen 2011-08-22 08:03 pm UTC (link)
	The few remaining civilians have fled, and sirens are getting closer. There is no trace that any beast was ever there, only Halbjorn's own rampage. This is not a good place for him to be found. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	stone_bear 2011-08-22 08:11 pm UTC (link)
	With a snarl of annoyance, he leaps towards the rooftops to continue his search as he heads in the direction of home in leaps and bounds. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	The next few hours will pass in relative peace, letting the bear-sark begin to let his rage and battle-lust subside. Plenty of time for some training to let out the excess energy. Internet and radio chatter is already in a whirl, talking about the hero and actor's violent breakdown. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	stone_bear 2011-08-23 03:10 am UTC (link)
	Halbjorn just hits the training area, never much of a fan of the media, despite his acting career, more concerned about where the monsters went than any chatter. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	There is a rumbling, and then a flash of light, as a massive bestial figure then towers over Halbjorn. "Enough sport..." Fenris rumbles. "Now you die, Thor-spawn." And the wolf rushes in with jaws wide. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	stone_bear 2011-08-23 07:35 pm UTC (link)
	Finally, a foe worthy of taking his frustrations with this day out on. Halbjorn roars a challenge back and rushes at Fenris. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	nextgen_asgard 2011-08-23 08:13 pm UTC (link)
	The Odinfiend raises an leg, letting Halbjorn's axe sink into it, unconcerned with such little wounds, as he then grapples with his jaws, before flinging the warriors across the yard. The wolf licks his lips. "Had I known thy blood was so tasty, dear cousin, I would have come for thee sooner." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	stone_bear 2011-08-23 08:19 pm UTC (link)
	The taunting does not help matters. "Come then, howe'er thou got free - thou wilt find the Bear of Asgard no easy meal!" He rushes again, savoring the rush of a challenge. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	nextgen_asgard 2011-08-23 09:47 pm UTC (link)
	The two continue to clash, blood and bits of flesh beginning to fly, as the fight draws closer to the compound. "Is this all you have, tooth-gnasher? if you cannot make better sport, perhaps I should return to the Golden Realm... yes... your sister, fat with her bastard child, would be succulent.." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	stone_bear 2011-08-23 09:55 pm UTC (link)
	And that is /it/. With one more howl of rage, there's no more sign of intelligence in his eyes, and the bear-sark lunges at his target, going through everything in his way to get there. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)
